Man I was rooting for them to win that game as hard as any of them I think it was an important one. one of the most physical preseason games I’ve seen by us we were relentless on both sides our backups kicked their *** from start to finish and flexed at the end. This bodes well for the season I believe, you can tell these players are fed up, finically I think. for years I’ve been barking about how I think we needed to get away from Miami for camp and this was the closest to that I could hope for. Dee eskridge you the man and I want that guy on the team instead of seeing who’s gonna win a spot, that guy can help us win Tanner Conner who I’ve been patient with, bigger stronger faster has paid off, he look like a legit 2nd tight end with upside. ollie showed a lot today that backup line held their own today, the whole game wease shows he might make the 6th but I think Taj wins that if they go there.. Sampling has Mattison juice that corner from Minnesota just made the team, heard some things about him that he’s a baller and that we all shoukd take serious EWERS CCC Just a bunch of dolphins dogs today everywhere
Hmmm it’s real quiet from the dolphin beat writers after that *** kicking 1 for 12 on 3rd down kicked their ****in ***
Starting to wonder if Ollie might be RB2 (or RB1 if Achane misses time). I like to take a Miami RB late in fantasy drafts, is Gordon the higher upside play?
Here’s hoping we got some gems later in this year’s draft (Phillips, Gordon, Ewers) as well as the two man mountains at the top of the draft balling out.
Yeah Jordan Phillips has been the most impressive. Might have found a gem there. Grayson Murphy appears to have some serious raw talent/upside. Not much room for playing time at edge, but I hope he makes the team so we can develop his talent. Reciever depth looks much improved this year. Malik looks ready to take a step year 2. Ikiene-Weatbrook finally gives us a little size and Eskridge is a nice find. Even if Hill goes Antonio Brown on us… there is some hope with our depth. Hopefully we are able to get Wease to the practice squad. Gordon III has definitely flipped Wright on the depth chart. He has shown he can bring some serious physical punch with the ball in his hands. And looked really smooth catching passes. Wright has fallen flat. Poor vision. Consistently stuffed on short yardage and serious fumbling issues. If not for Mattison injury… probably would have been a cut candidate. Secondary remains the biggest concern. Still not much hope there (for me anyways).
Lord knows we needed some good drafts because prior to last year's we were getting almost nothing out of them. Even "good" drafts have rarely produced more than one player who have gotten second contract. It's why our depth at positions like OL, TE and CB are so bad - we haven't had years of drafted players developing and slotting in forcing reliance on overpriced and fading veterans or on UDFAs.
